Real Life 24

The above video, which has little national press coverage so far, is quite shocking. It seems to be something straight out of an episode of 24, or some Tom Clancy novel. It is in relation to the illegal and shady practices of our government spying on its own citizens.

The lowdown is as follows: John Ashcroft (former U.S. Attorney General - the guy in charge of all law) was very sick in the hospital. Prior to his sickness, John Ashcroft discussed with James Comey (his assistant) their lack of approval for a White House spying program. They didn't beleive the program was legal, and would not sign off on the program for the White House. This was an important rebuke of the White House - The Attorney Generals signature was required for the White House program to take place.

James Comey, an assistant to John Ashcroft took over the reigns of Ashcroft in his sickness. Alberto Gonzales (the Attorney General now in charge), asked James Comey for the signature to approve the spying program, which he of course refused. Alberto Gonzales and other White House cronies decided to go to the John Ashcroft's bedside in the hospital, in hopes that he would sign off in a daze.

From the Senate investigation:

Comey: So I hung up the phone, immediately called my chief of staff, told him to get as many of my people as possible to the hospital immediately. I hung up, called [FBI] Director Mueller, with whom I'd been discussing this particular matter and who'd been a great help to me over that week, and told him what was happening. He said, "I'll meet you at the hospital right now."

I told my security detail that I needed to get to George Washington Hospital immediately. They turned on the emergency equipment and drove very quickly to the hospital. I got out of the car and ran up -- literally ran up the stairs with my security detail...

Sen. Schumer: What was your concern? You were in, obviously, a huge hurry.

Comey: I was concerned that given how ill I knew the Attorney General was, that there might be an effort to ask him to overrule me, when he was in no condition to do that.

Schumer: Right.

Comey: I was worried about him, frankly. So I raced to the hospital room, entered, and Mrs. Ashcroft was standing by the hospital bed. Mr. Ashcroft was lying down in the bed, the room was darkened. And I immediately began speaking to him, trying to orient him as to time and place, and try to see if he could focus on what was happening. And it wasn't clear to me that he could. He seemed pretty bad off.

Schumer: And at that point it was you, Mrs. Aschroft and the Attorney General, and maybe medical personnel in the room. No other Justice Department or government officials.

Comey: It was just the three of us at that point. I tried to see if I could help him get oriented. As I said, it wasn't clear that I had succeeded. I went out in the hallway, spoke to Director Mueller by phone. He was on his way. He handed the phone to the director of the security detail, and Director Mueller instructed the FBI agents present not to allow me to be removed from the room under any circumstances. And I went back in the room.
